Bugzilla Bug 209779

I installed seekwatcher and attempted to make a movie with it. The program
croaked, saying that "--movie" was an unknown option. So I went to the web site
and tried to play the movies there. They wouldn't play, so I installed
"mplayer" (and its dependencies). Apparently one of those dependencies is also
used by seekwatcher to make movies. So I'm thinking there's a missing
dependency in the seekwatcher ebuild. But I don't know which one it is -- I
might try to dig into that later.

That doesn't take too much digging... ;)

<snip>
seekwatcher --movie uses mencoder or png2theora to create movie files.

The first one is provided by media-video/mplayer with USE=encode, the second by
media-libs/libtheora with USE=examples.

I added a postinst note about this. I did not put it as a dependency as they
are not actually required, and they pull in a lot of stuff when you are using
seekwatcher on a server.
